Transmediation is the process of recreating the meaning of a text from one medium to another (e.g. from a novel to a film). It is used to enhance communicative impact.
This can be done especially through theater. Many novels have gone from the written word to the stage. In some ways it makes it better to see the words acted out. I really enjoy the post modern transmediation. A wonderful example of this is Watchmen.
